《Where Giants Roam》The Eastern Mountains
Advertisement
Twulai walked through the mountains with Achala behind him and Asil at the back. Achala was chatty, wanting to know more about where Asil and Twulai were from, and what it was like there. Twulai kept his head down, watching for danger but for a long time, the world was still around them. A day and a half into their journey Twulai saw two figures walking towards them from the west. As they grew closer it became clear that they were two Giants walking steadily and unafraid. Despite their scars and healing wounds Twulai quickly recognized them.
“Ilioc! Torbjørn!” He shouted out, running towards them.
“Ilioc! Torbjørn!” Asil also shouted out and ran to them.
“What happened to you?” Twulai asked.
“We were put in an arena,” Ilioc began. “We were forced to fight but the old gatekeeper gave us some poison that allowed us to escape. What about you?” He asked.
“We exploded the very chains which were holding us prisoner,” Asil replied.
“What do you mean?” Torbjørn asked, “You were in chains the whole time?”
“We were chained to a wagon, transporting goods throughout the North,” Twulai explained. “We also picked up a friend on the way,” Twulai said, turning to Achala.
“Hi, I’m Achala. It’s lovely to meet you Ilioc and Torbjørn,” Achala greeted them, smiling and shaking their hands.
“What a fine friend you’ve found,” Torbjørn replied cheerfully. “Shall we continue and talk on the way? Let us start getting closer to home,” Torbjørn said and the other Giants nodded in agreement. Twulai and Asil thought briefly of Pacha but with no hope of finding her, and unsure if she was even alive they quickly moved her on from their minds. The Giants travelled south for another two days, sharing stories of their captivity and their escapes. They learned about Achala’s background and her lack of freedom.

Elizabeth was on watch, her mood was solemn yet peaceful when in the distance she saw shapes moving. Five large creatures were coming towards her. Elizabeth quickly became fearful and she woke Pacha.
“What’s the problem?” Pacha asked.
“There are large creatures, coming right for us,” Elizabeth replied fearfully but Pacha’s eyes lit up at this.
Could it be? She thought to herself. Pacha crawled to the top of the cave, careful not to reveal herself.
“Pacha! Pacha!” Elizabeth whispered with urgency.
“Shhh,” Pacha replied quickly. She stuck her head out of the cave to see the four Giants she recognized and a new one. Instantly she came out of the cave shouting and waving her arms in the air, “Asil! Twulai! Ilioc! Torbjørn!”
“Pacha?” Asil said as she heard her shouting. Asil’s eyes pin-pointed to Pacha by the caves entrance half-way up the mountainside. “Pacha!” Asil exclaimed as she reached her and did her best to hug Pacha, although it was a little difficult. “It’s so good to see you! I can’t believe that you’re out here!” Asil said with joy.
“Come here Pacha,” Twulai said as he also came to her and hugged her. From within the cave, Elizabeth heard Pacha and the Giants conversing and she slowly came to the entrance of the cave. She stood watching the relationship between Pacha and the Giants. Ilioc spotted Elizabeth,
“Hey,” He called in a friendly tone and Elizabeth vanished out of sight. Pacha heard this and turned to see Ilioc leaning into the cave where Elizabeth was hidden within.
“Elizabeth!” Pacha called. “It’s alright, they’re friends,” Pacha called into the cave and after a moment a reluctant Elizabeth appeared. She walked timidly towards Pacha, wary of the Giants.

“Hi,” Asil greeted Elizabeth. “I’m Asil, it’s nice to meet you,” Asil said putting out her hand. Elizabeth paused and took in the scene around her before she took Asil’s hand.
“Elizabeth. It’s an experience to meet you,” She replied. Twulai laughed at her comment as she shook hands with Asil.
“I’m Twulai,” He announced shaking Elizabeth’s hand next.
“Torbjørn,”
“Ilioc,”
“And I’m Achala,” The final Giants announced in sequence, each shaking Elizabeth’s hand. Overwhelmed Elizabeth still couldn't take in what was in front of her.
Five Giants, all with manners better than my own. She thought to herself.
“Come on, let’s get out of here,” Achala said and Asil took Pacha and Elizabeth onto her shoulder.

Spiko's Journey
This is a Story of Spiko. An once normal cat, now a cat-girl. Which found herself in a new world. Searching for her home and anything that can hold her attention long enough. Join Spiko on her travels, in a world that is as unforgiving as it is breath taking. Be warned. This is a somewhat slow burn story. I expect that I will need a few chapters to get the rough outlines out there. General Info: -I really do this mostly, cause i need to freshen up my grammar and stuff. So, I will go over these chapters a lot, if I find errors (or you find them). I will mark revised chapters and what I changed in them ( if it is of importance to the story). I'm sorry for anything i might unleash onto the world. -There will be a little of everything in this. But I will never do harem stuff. Or horror just for the sake of it being horrific. No needless bad popes, bandits that rape villagers. Just for a hero to save the day. No stupid tropes. No OP Powers that can call forth doom to anyone. Spiko has Plot Armor as thick as any MC that you can't really kill off for good. But no Demon Lord will trip over a pebble, onto a peel of any fruit of choice and then die in a comedic way. When she needs saving. She's a tough cookie, which will find ways to get out of trouble (or into it). -Yes, the picture shows Spiko in her true glory. Before a lot of other stuff happened to her. And yes, Spiko is a weird Name for a cat. I'm weird. -Thoughts of Spiko are in Cursive = Why is that flower blue? -Descriptions and passive observational stuff that is coming from 3rd person view is in normal = There stood a blue flower, as Spiko shifted her wary gaze. -Distinct sounds are in bold = Swish (goes the cat paw on that blue flower!) -Talking is as always in "Hey, stop that!" -System stuff will be in tables = [Stat gain Stuff and so on] -There will be light GameLit stuff. I won't overdo it and if i do anything GameLit, it will have a reason and explanation. Do excuse the table formatting. I'm not great with word processor programs. -I'm crazy. Updates: Saturdays + whenever I feel like it (atm about 2~4 chapters a weekend + maybe weekdays. I guess?).
8 117The Vorrgistadt Saga - Archives (2015-2018)
The world of Aelth Myrris is dying; the world-god is in her death throes. This was not caused by rampant environmental devastation, the fall-out of some cataclysmic war, nor a random happenstance of celestial events. This act of murder was entirely intentional and caused by capricious and hidden entities even more powerful than the gods themselves.The many groups that call the world-god Myrris home have been abandoned. Once proud societies are crumbling into ruin and barbarity as those with ambition vie to seize what few bits of fading power they can. Amidst this tumult, there are still some stories to be told about those few who cling to life wanting more than power and trinkets. This is the saga of those few who hope for a better future. Those few who defy the hidden entities that devour their world. Those few who refuse to be the pawns of fate.
8 71Dream Chaser
When I was born, I was discarded as worthless for I had no sense of Energy currents. When I became the sword of the realm, I was disowned. Now that I was one vote away from passing an edict of equality between Energy users and not, I had my life’s work burned in my hands. “Who are you to change this world, silly boy?” the true ruler of the empire, the head councilman, asked me. There could only be one answer. Your son. Elecar Winteridge, 7 B.S. (Before the Scourge) ________________________________ Ragnarök, judgement day or the day of reckoning. Every religion and cult has foretellings of the final day. For most people it is just an old tale, something to frighten misbehaving children or a tool for scaring the masses. But for Shea and her world this became a despairing reality. Forests turned into deserts and seas became salt lakes. Continents were smashed together, becoming one or disappearing without a trace. The whole world was covered in the ashes of fires. When Shea awoke in her shelter, not only was she injured but everyone and everything she knew was gone. All she had left were her memories and the innate talent to use the shaping ability to aid in her survival. _________________________________ Author of Flight of Icarus Member of Scribble
